为探讨黄山短尾猴对游人攻击行为与猴(行为发起者)和游人(行为承受者)年龄/性别组的关系,于2008年11—12月和2009年4—5月以黄山短尾猴鱼鳞坑YA1群和YA2群为研究对象,将其攻击行为按照危害程度大小划分为3类,采用全事件取样法和连续取样法观察记录猴对游人攻击行为类型、发生攻击行为的短尾猴和受到攻击的游人年龄/性别组,并统计猴群和游人数量。研究发现,成年雄猴所有攻击行为发生的比例显著高于期望值(P〈0.01),成年雌猴和未成年猴攻击行为Ⅲ(威胁)发生的比例显著低于期望值(P〈0.01);在游人中,成年男性受到所有攻击发生的比例显著高于期望值(P〈0.01),成年女性和未成年人受到攻击行为Ⅲ发生的比例显著低于期望值(P〈0.01)。结果表明,黄山短尾猴对游人的攻击行为在人猴年龄/性别组中存在差异。成年雄性比成年雌性和未成年猴更易攻击游人,成年男性游人比成年女性和未成年人更易受到短尾猴攻击。建议在管理过程中重点监控管理成年雄猴和提醒成年男性游人,这为进一步探讨人猴之间关系提供科学基础,并为其他类似地区生态旅游监管提供案例以供借鉴。
To investigate the relationship between monkey-human aggressive behaviors and age/sex classes of monkey(initiator) and human(recipient),by using all-occurrence sampling and continuous recording,we evaluated the monkey-human aggressive behaviors between macaques(Macaca thibetana) and tourists at Mt.Huangshan in two periods(Nov.-Dec.2008 and Apr.-May 2009).After we divide the aggression into three types according to the dangerous level to tourists,some significant patterns were observed.Our observations indicate that Tibetan macaques respond differently to human according to the age/sex classes involved.On one hand,We found that the adult male monkeys tend to be more aggressive than expected(P〈0.01),while the adult female monkeys and immature monkeys participated in AGⅢ behaviors(threat) less than expected(P〈0.01);On the other hand,The adult male human received more aggressive behaviors than expected(P〈0.01),while the adult female human and child received less aggressive in AGⅢ behaviors(threat)(P〈0.01).Our results provide not only a scientific basis for the management advice that adult male monkeys and adult male human should be given special attention,but also a good management model of Huangshan for other primate tourist exploring places.
